AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 4219 S Kedzie Ave in Brighton Park, owned by Esteban Barrios, was constructed in 1926 and has maintained relatively minimal service activity over the past seven years. The property's official records show only one 311 service request during this period - a leak inspection request filed on August 2, 2024, which has since been marked as closed. This single service request over seven years suggests either efficient maintenance practices or potentially underreported issues, though the limited service history could indicate overall stable building conditions. The building's official records are up-to-date as of October 2023, showing no additional documented concerns affecting resident experience or safety during this period.

Risk rating

How 4219 S Kedzie Ave's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of Chicago code enforcement data — building violations, 311 complaint history, environmental enforcement, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that the City of Chicago will find a code violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Grade A–B — Low risk

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
